My Timex Marathon WR50M watch says 3/2 but "MO 2" instead of the correct "SAT 2". How do I fix this? (Problem started after Feb. 29, 2024.)
Question edited to add maker.
Reset the day in the settings. My guess is that you are in the wrong year.

Accessing CASIO's WV-58A-1AV Waveceptor battery for replacement
This is a simple spring clip. At the end nearest the wrist strap there is a hook clip. Insert a small, thin pin and hook the lowest edge outwards and the strap should spring free.
Try the video link below, (at 2:45 minutes). It's a slightly different watch but the method is the same.

Straussburg Manor chime clock doesn't work even after replacing battery. Any tips to troubleshoot?The clock was obtained via auction. Tried manually swinging the pendulum, but it always stops.
Troubleshoot the issue. Here are some steps you can take:
Check the Chime Selection Lever:
Ensure that the chime selection lever is not set to the "silent" position. Sometimes, accidentally setting it to silent mode can prevent the chimes from sounding.
Inspect the Cam with Humps:
The Westminster mechanical clock has a cam with humps on the front plate of the movement. These humps control when the movement stops chiming.
Run the chime by turning the hand (you can mount it with the nut, but it's not necessary). Observe the cam with the humps spinning.
Wait until it reaches the end of the smallest hump (which represents the first quarter, the shortest chime).
Stop the gear train from moving with your fingers and hold it.
Adjust the hammers from the back of the movement to match the position where the last hammer drops after the 1-2-3-4-5 hammers strike in a row, representing the end of the first quarter.
Tighten the cam so that the bar riding the cam is just after the smallest hump. This should set the chimes correctly.
Battery Replacement:
If you've recently replaced the battery, ensure that you've used fresh C batteries with high capacity.
Batteries should be changed annually to guarantee accurate timing and consistent chime sounds.
Low Battery Warning Function:
If your clock starts behaving irregularly or the pendulum stops (if equipped), it might be due to low battery. Install new batteries to resolve this issue.
Remember, these are general guidelines, and specific models may have additional considerations. If the problem persists, consider seeking professional assistance or replacing the movement if necessary. If your clock is chain-driven, you can order the 1161-053 movement from Clockworks when you're ready to swap it out.
